POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Sometimes I look back at old photos and genuinely can’t believe where this journey has taken me.

When I was competing, I had one goal and that was to see how far I could take myself as an athlete.

Eventually, that chapter ended.

And honestly, I had no idea what came next.

Then opportunities started appearing.

Coaching in China.

Working with Team USA.

Olympic Games.

Working with athletes and teams from different nations.

Consulting across three Olympic Games.

None of it was mapped out.

There wasn’t some perfect 10-year plan that I followed.

There were just opportunities.

And decisions.

Sometimes I knew exactly what I was doing.

Other times I absolutely didn’t.

But I’ve always tried to say yes to the opportunities that felt right and then figure out how to make them work.

Looking back now, I think about the younger version of me.

The kid who just wanted to become an athlete and the fastest man in the world.

I wonder what he’d think if he could see these photos.

I hope he’d be proud.

Not because of the medals, Olympic Games or titles.

But because I kept moving forward when one chapter ended.

I want you to take a few minutes out of your day and think about about this:

What would your younger self think of the person you’ve become?

And perhaps more importantly…

What opportunity is sitting in front of you right now that you’re afraid to take? by @teatraythomas

The biggest question of all in the grandness of Zion National Park 🏞️❤️

Quite literally was the perfect storm in all of this coming together. Thanks hurricane Milton 🙌🙌

Our life has had so many synchronicities to bring us to this point!!

Zion will forever be etched into my memory, as will 10/10/24

“These great mountains are natural temples of God. We can worship here as well as in the man-made temples at Zion, the biblical heavenly ‘City of God.’”

My best friend, the love of my life and soon to be my beautiful wife!

@thesavagemeglet I love you deeply! Thank you for making me the proudest man on the planet ❤️ taken in Zion National Park by @teatraythomas

Coaching is a blessing!! ♥️

What an incredible way to spend my days. Seeing other people succeed and achieve things that they once thought were impossible.

-Building that relationship and trust
-Creating simple systems
-Being the person in their corner
-giving that tough love when needed

There are so many nuances to coaching. Every single person is different too which makes it even more exciting for me.

So this is just a thank you to all that I have coached and will coach in the future.

I truly love what I get to do from the places I get to do it from!

Honestly, so good to get out on the track today with @benthebounce

It has been years since I’ve dragged a set of hurdles out and done these drills. Good to know I still have the rhythm and blues.

Building back into max velocity sprinting has been beautifully frustrating; from moving slow, stopping sessions when I feel like I have so much more in there and injuries a long the way.

That’s sometimes what happens. I’m here for it!

But today was class. Two former athletes at the top of the game now coaching and learning from each other!

Just fucking class by @teatraythomas

How adaptable are you?

With the winter fast approaching and people heading out onto the ice already I’m taking this back a DECADE!!

Wild to think it’s been that long.

What most won’t notice in these videos is that I push from DIFFERENT sides of the sled.

This is something I worked on as an athlete to be able to change the grooves I pushed in depending on the conditions and also the direction/entry point of curve 1.

My goal was to be the fastest pusher in the world from BOTH SIDES of the sled. With the fastest velocity entering corner 1.

Now, that adaptability is something I take through life with me and also bring into my clients and athletes lives.

Whether that be an injury, lack of food prepped for those long flights and drives or late nights and battling jet lag.

Being ADAPTABLE is a skill we want to work on.

It doesn’t always go to plan so my question to you is how are you going to act in those situations?

When I said there was nothing like this in the sport of skeleton I meant in. Bobsled version in the works ✌️

-Start set ups
-Track notes
-Weather data
-Videos
-even has grocery stores, laundry services and what to do in each area 😂

This is unlike anything the sport has ever seen and available to everyone 🙌🙌

Very excited to release this into the world

It’s about time something like this was created for our sport.

This came from working with @jaredfirestone_ over the past Olympic cycle. Nearly a decade invested into a sport, and he won’t mind me saying this, but still not mastering the absolute basics.

Not from a lack of trying, just a lack of knowledge and how to turn that knowledge into actions.

This has been needed in the sports of bobsled and skeleton for a long time now, so I created it specifically for skeleton.

Bobsled isn’t my wheelhouse but I would love to share this with someone who wants to run with it.

2 decades of knowledge and data rolled into one fucking sick app.

Believe the impossible.

I’m fucking sick of people waiting until tomorrow. Waiting until Monday. Waiting until the new year.

There are 90 days left until 2027. Do you realise how much can change in that time?

You could build better habits, change your routine, meet new people, get stronger, start the thing you keep talking about and become a completely different person. For me, that’s going full tilt in a pair of spikes. Something I haven’t done in 7 years!!!

You don’t need a fresh year to start again. You need to stop putting your life on hold.

Start and START NOW!! by @teatraythomas
